Helminth Regulation of Treg-mediated Cytokine Modulation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To determine TGFβ cytokine generation of Treg-enriched vs Treg-depleted cultures, CD4+ T cells were purified from splenic and mesenteric lymph node (MLN) single cell suspensions of H. polygyrus-infected and uninfected Balb/C mice using CD4 T cell untouched isolation kit (Miltenyi Biotech) and separated into CD25 positive and CD25 negative fractions using anti-CD25 PE labeling, followed by magnetic separation with anti-PE beads (Miltenyi Biotech). Enrichment or depletion efficiency was >98% with these techniques (data not shown). To determine helminthic regulation of donor T cell IFNγ TNFα and interleukin 4 (IL4) cytokine output during GVHD, donor CD3+ T cells were sorted from total anti-CD3 FITC and anti-H2b PE stained splenocytes of uninfected and H. polygyrus-infected Balb/C recipients 6 days after GVHD induction using FACS Vantage SE DiVa cell sorter (Becton Dickinson).

Helminth-Induced Regulation of T Cell Cytokines

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The expression of LAP and the production of TGFβ cytokine were assessed by purifying CD4+ T cells from splenic and mesenteric lymph nodes (MLN) of Hpb-infected and uninfected WT BALB/c, STAT6–/–, STAT6 VT, furinfl/fl, furinfl/fl x CD4 Cre mice using the CD4 T Cell Untouched Isolation Kit (Miltenyi Biotech). This resulted in >98% enrichment for CD4+ T cells (data not shown). To assess helminthic regulation of cytokine production by donor T cells during GVHD, donor CD3+ T cells from uninfected and Hpb-infected WT BALB/c or STAT6–/– BMT recipients were sorted from total splenocytes stained with anti-CD3 FITC and anti-H2b PE 6 days after GVHD induction, using a FACS Vantage SE DiVa cell sorter (Becton Dickinson).

T cell Differentiation and Modulation

Naive CD4+CD25 T cells were purified from LNs and spleen of WT C57BL/6, CD4CrePkm2fl/fl or control littermate (CD4Cre and Pkm2fl/fl) mice with the untouched CD4 T cell isolation kit (Miltenyi Biotec) and a biotinylated CD25 monoclonal antibody (eBioscience) by using an AutoMACS magnetic cell sorter (Miltenyi Biotec) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Purified cells were activated with soluble anti-CD3ε:CD28 (both 1 µg/ml; BD Biosciences) on U-bottomed plates (105/well). Skewing conditions were as follows: Th17, 2.5 ng/ml rhTGF-β1 (eBioscience) plus 20 ng/ml rmIL-6 (R&D Systems) with or without 20 ng/ml rmIL-23 (R&D Systems); Th1, rmIL-12, and rmIL-2 (both 20 ng/ml; R&D Systems); Th2, anti-IFN-γ (10 µg/ml), rmIL-4, and rmIL-2 (both 20 ng/ml; R&D Systems). For iT reg cell polarization, naive T cells were cultured with plate-bound CD3ε:CD28 (both 1 µg/ml; BD Biosciences) in the presence of 1 ng/ml rhTGF-β1 (eBioscience). When indicated, 0.1 µM rapamycin (Cayman Chemical), 100 µM TEPP-46 (Millipore), or 2 µM Stattic (Tocris) was used.

Adoptive Transfer of Aged CD4+ T Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Bulk CD4+ T cells were isolated from spleens and CLN from young and aged B6 mice using magnetic beads according to the manufacturer’s instructions (untouched CD4+ T cell isolation kit, Miltenyi Biotec, Auburn, CA). The CD4 enriched cell suspensions contained ≥ 90% CD4+ T cells as determined by flow cytometry (data not shown).
CD4+CXCR3+ cells were isolated from the spleens and CLN from young and aged B6 mice via a two-step procedure in which CD4+ T cells were pre-enriched by depletion of unwanted cells using the kit described above. The CD4+ T cell fraction was then incubated with the anti-CXCR3_PE antibody (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN) and then magnetically labeled with anti-PE microbeads and positively selected for CD4+CXCR3+ cells, according to the manufacturers’ instructions (Miltenyi Biotec, Auburn, CA). These cells were used to perform adoptive transfer experiments or collected for quantitative gene expression. Young and aged bulk CD4+T or CD4+CXCR3+ cells (2×106) were transferred intraperitoneally (i.p.) into 6–10 week old T cell deficient RAG1KO mice. Experiments were performed five weeks after adoptive transfer of bulk CD4+T cells or CD4+CXCR3+ cells. Eyes were collected for goblet cell density analysis and LGs were collected for histology.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
